P: Program error when trying to use clone stamp tool

Problem started 2 days ago. Only when attempting to use the Clone Stamp tool. Other tools seem OK. I re-installed Photoshop and reset the tool. No benefit. No changes to hardware or software on PC. Error text "Could not complete your request because of a program error". Also cannot dismiss error message. Have to press Ctrl+Alt+Del to access Task Manager to close Photoshop.

Problem resolved by rolling back to Ps 23.3.2. A temporary solution I hope.

This seems to have worked for me doing the reset of preferences. Thank you.

Same thing happened on my end with using the Clone Stamp Tool. Uninstalling the 23.4.1 and reinstalling 23.3.2 worked.

 

Thanks!

I've been seeing this same clone = crash issue on MPB with the M1 Pro chip since the 23.4.1 upgrade. I reverted back to 23.3.2 and the bug is gone. Will use this version until seeing a notification that this issue has been resolved.
